Have you ever seen an animal in nature? Maybe it was a bunny! Did it have a busy twitchy nose?

Here's to stepping away from the Writer's desk! I'm unexpectedly on Aunty duty this weekend. I've got the kiddos at the beach and we're looking for sea glass and I get the idea that finally gets me unblocked on world building for my next book! #amwriting #bookthreads

Today is a HUGE day! My book won Canada's largest Reader's Choice book award in the children's category. This is a book for anyone with any kind of speech challenge - because when you're voice won't obey what you're trying to say, it's OK! #bookawards #ampublishing #childrensbooks #canadianauthor

I wrote the book I wish I'd had as a child. An uplifting book about speech differences by an author who knows what it's like. Because when your voice won't obey what you're trying to say, it's OK! #booksky #kidslit #readyourworld #canadianbookclubawards #bestbooksforkids

Holy Moses! The hardcover is less than the paperback for my book right. If you've ever thought about getting this book this is a good time! (Perhaps as a gift? Maybe a teacher's gift?)

* A book for people with speech differences by an author who knows what it's like.

If I can be a voice of 'lyrical storytelling, deep connection to nature, and a genuine respect for children's perspectives', then I've found my place in this crazy world. How humbling to see this article! Don't mind me, I'll just be over here trying to process this.
